Sweet Temptation by N. J. (the ebook reader .txt) 📖

insults even though I only told her what really happened. Logan on the other hand was seething with anger and sadness. I put my arms around him and he immediately calmed.

“I’m sorry he made you go through that, Mandy. No man should beat a girl because he is jealous.” Logan tensed in my arms again.

“Shh, it was a long time ago.” I kissed his chest.

“ But you were just a girl, baby.” I could tell Logan was still upset because he tightened his hold on me. It was now my turn to reassure Logan. As he didn’t seem to listen to me effectively, I went to kiss his lips to shut him up.

That got me the reaction I wanted and more. Logan suddenly stopped and held my head with both of his hands to kiss me harder. He was such a good kisser. I felt suddenly too hot in his bathrobe.

“Logan, it’s too hot in here.” He laughed at that. Anger and all the rest were forgotten.

Good, that was what I wanted, but now I wanted more of his kisses. It was like I didn’t have any control over my bodies anymore. I needed Logan’s hand and mouth on me. He kissed me again this time, it was just hot and carnal kisses. I felt alive and tingled everywhere. But I knew there was more.

“Logan, I need more.” That got him wilder but I felt his hesitation at the same time.

“Are you sure Mandy?” How sweet of him to ask. I didn’t think I would have stopped at a time like this.

“I’m sure, Logan.” His heated eyes locked with mine as if he needed to make sure I understood where this was going. I was absolutely in this. I never wanted any guy like I’ve wanted Logan. No, I needed him like the air I breathe. I was really glad that I waited for him and didn’t give in to the pressure like Vicky. My silent consent must have satisfied him because he bent his head and proceeded to kiss me…

 

***

I woke up with Logan kissing me softly on my neck. He marked me as his yesterday and I marked him as well. I wore his mark and he wore mine.

“Good morning, sunshine.” He said against my lips. I went to move my legs to wrap them around him but I was still tender from last night. Seeing me wince slightly, he got out of bed after one last kiss. 

“Don’t move. I’m going to take care of you.” He straightened and took me in his arms as if I weight nothing. I stopped complaining since I knew now that werewolves were a lot stronger than humans. Let’s face it, I was not a small girl and on if it was any guy I would have dug my foot no but this was Logan.

He carried me to the bathroom and cleaned up, telling me to stay under the shower head before cleaning me gently. We were both breathing hard by the time he was done. I wanted more but he knew I was still sore.

After we were done, he carried me back in his arms.

“I could get used to it,” I said and kissed him passionately.

“Me too,” he said. I sensed he wanted to say more but his mom’s presence interrupted us.

I hid my head against the crook of his neck as I felt myself reddened. Damn, we were screwed I thought.

Why didn’t I think of going back to my room? Maybe because I was too tired to move after playing with the big bad wolf all night long. I felt myself blush even more.

Logan and his mom laughed at me. At least, Logan had me wrapped in a towel which was enough to make me decent. I felt him go rigid. Shoot! He must be hard, I laughed at that, embarrassment forgotten. He growled at that.

Clearing his throat, he put me down in front of him to hide the evidence of his desire from his mom.

“I just wanted to tell you that I put some clothes for you, Mandy in your room,” she said as she made a dash for the door. I blushed at that but managed to thank her.

 

Logan’s P.O.V:

I prided myself for my self-control but now it was about to desert me. Mandy was wearing some converses, tight jade jeans that hugged her ass and a snug little black t-shirt which didn’t hide her breast. She wasn’t wearing any bra, and she was bending over to do the bed. I felt myself growing hard again. Seeing me, Mandy stopped doing the bed and went over to wrap her arms around my neck and kiss me.

I pulled her closer and angled her head to deepen the kiss. I released her after some time. Both of us breathing hard.

“Come on, I don’t want to be late.” I took her hand and lead her down the stairs.

As we got there, I was surprised to see my entire pack and some new faces I didn’t know but I assumed they were from Mandy’s. My assumption was right when Mandy flung herself at an older man.

“Uncle Jake!” They hugged each other. Mandy looked happy so I was good.

“Meet my mate,” Mandy said. After we got the meeting, we proceeded down to the business.

“As you know, Josh, I rarely visit you since the last incident we had two years ago. But now, I heard my little Mandy here had her mate so I figured we might as well celebrate and leave all that behind.”

Everyone agreed but I felt the tension sizzling in the air. The room was hotter so I raised my arms to take off the jumper I had on. I heard someone gasp next to me.

“Logan, did you always have that tattoo on you?” I finally got off the jumper. Mandy went to sit on my lap. I put my hand on her waist. I looked at my belly and saw a sort of tribal tattoo that wasn’t there.

 “No, why?” I was confused. Mandy looked at it more closely before she gasped.

Every one turned to her.

“Do you know something about it?” Her uncle asked. Mandy looked a little paler. I took her in my arms and put my head over her head.

“Baby, what’s wrong?” She was clutching my chest as if her life depended on it. “Breathe, Mandy. Breathe,” I said. After several deep breathe, she relaxed a little in my arms and looked up at me.

“I have to tell you all something.” She stood up and pulled me to my feet. After we were both standing, she lifted her t-shirt to reveal the same tattoo on her belly.

“What’s the meaning of this?” Her mom asked. She was clearly worried and I saw my mom made her way to her. By this time, the room was completely silent; all eyes were trained to us. We were all on a kind of an edge.

“Two years ago, before Grandma Pearl died; she confided to me the task of guarding the “Chosen One” which I didn’t really understand at the time.” At the mention of the “Chosen One”, everyone looked at each other. Heck, even I knew that the “Chosen One” was meant to be born from a powerful bloodline of Alphas. There were a bunch of legend around him but I never paid attention to any of those.

Someone made a quick trip to the library and had a thick volume of an ancient book. It was my father, after some inspection of the book; he showed it to Mandy’s uncle who looked at us with a new found respect.

“Mandy, Logan, don’t freak out but you are the parents of the “Chosen One”, he said before he looked back at the book.

A collective gasp was heard. Mandy went by my side and I enveloped her in my arms.

“When did you mate?” That was from my dad.

Mandy reddened a little and I felt my cheeks heat as well. That was an awkward question.

“Uh, last night.” I saw people high fiving each, some throwing congratulations. My parents as well as Mandy’s parents wore a big grin on their face.  Finally, I looked back at Mandy who looked at me with stars in her eyes.

“That explained it. Mandy, you must have conceived yesterday since it was the moonlight.” Mandy crawled more into my arms as if she could get closer. I was so damn proud of myself I wanted to howl but she was afraid. I kissed her cheek and whispered soothing words to her. The others in the room cheered.

After letting us have our moment, her uncle put up a hand to stop us.

“However, according to the legend, the Black Shadow pack will try to interfere with the Chosen One’s birth because they would lose everything since they went rogue after the Chosen One is born.”

Everyone froze. I tightened my grip on Mandy as I looked at her. She put a protective hand on her belly even though it was still flat. As if sensing my gaze on her, she looked smiling. She had a determined look on her face even though she was still a little scared.

“No one gets near our baby,” she declared with strong voice. Wow, she changed so much.

“We need a plan before they can get us.” Mandy’s dad said. We all agreed. Mandy pressed more against me but I sensed she was not afraid anymore.

“I’ve got you and our baby, Mandy,” I promised her. She kissed me and kissed her back. No matter what it will take, no one hurt my family. I’ll die before I let that happen.

Preparation

 

Mandy’s P.O.V

I was a little worried about the war but mostly about the baby. I didn’t know anything about taking care of a baby and I was barely out of school.

“Logan, do you know anything about baby?” Maybe he knew something.

Leaving what he did, he went by my side.

“No, Mandy,” he said. My heart dropped. Seeing my reaction he added: “But we’re not alone in this, we have our parents. I won’t leave your side, Mandy.” That reassured me a little. I knew then that Logan would not leave me even though a baby who is destined to change our world was a big responsibility that neither of us expected. My heart swelled with joy as he once again promised to stay by my side. How can I do that to him? I brought nothing but trouble since we met.

“Hey, we’re going to be fine,” he said. “I’m here to stay and no one touches what is mine.” He pulled me in a tight hug. Everything felt safe again.

Our pack was preparing for the war as we needed to get the Black Shadow pack first before the baby was due. According to my uncle, the moment they would know about the baby, they would try to kidnap me. I already loved our baby. That much I knew. However, I needed to learn how to use my wolf to defend myself and the baby as well. I turned to ask Logan to train me.

“Logan, can I ask you something?” I looked into his eyes. I knew he loved our unborn baby as much as I did even though we were both baby ourselves.

“Sure, anything for you,” he said giving
